Another short one for October. Things have been crazy busy with the logistics of moving out to the new apartment, and with the bootstrapping of the new team at work. I've had very little time to work on learning and personal projects.
The main highlight of the month was finishing a course on the Go programming language, which I have never worked with before but is part of the core stack in my new team. I usually learn better with video courses than with any other material, so I chose this approach again and it worked as expected. But it turns out that it is not very easy to learn something new in this age in which AI is just right there ready to do everything for you at the distance of a single prompt... I plan to write a few posts specifically about this and how the process of learning the language has been so far.
I have also been involved very deeply in how AI is changing the software development process at our team, but this is a huge topic that deserves attention by itself. Hopefully I will be able to write a few pieces on this, but it might take several months yet. We'll see!
I expect to be able to write more in this last stretch of the year, and continue doing so next year. But the pace might still be a little erratic, due to all the changes in my personal life. For the remainder of the year I will probably be still working on getting comfortable with Go and more writing, leaving any new major projects to next year.
